The Joseph Howe Elementary School runs a daily breakfast program that feeds approximately 50 children per day and our club supports both financially and with volunteer time on Wednesday mornings.

What is involved when volunteering your time on Wednesday mornings? Arrive at 7:30am to start prepping the food. At 8:30am, the doors are open to the children so serving begins and continues until 8:50am or when the food runs out. A quick cleanup of washing dishes and putting things away in the kitchen takes you to about 9- 9:15am. Then you're on your way out the door!

Our monthly business meeting is an opportunity for club members to discuss and influence the many projects we do. Our business meetings are open to visitors/guests.

Ronnie identifies as a Steward of the Earth. This life’s calling is rooted in her love for the ocean. After receiving her degree in Marine Biology, Ronnie has now started to focus on the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals as a means to increase environmental well-being. She will be speaking to some of the work she has done with SDGs locally through the Circularity Forum and what work still needs to be done to bring about an ideal world.

It has been a difficult time for many Nova Scotians over the last few weeks experiencing both murder and death in our province in addition to the already difficult time as we live under COVID 19 lockdown. For those directly affected by the attacks it is almost impossible to describe.

This is not something that we ever thought we would have to face, and there is no rulebook on how best to handle it.

One of the greatest comforts in times of shock and grief is knowing that you are not alone, and that someone out there has been through something similar; understands exactly what you are experiencing, and can provide some insights and guidance on how to get back on your feet, and live with your changed reality afterwards.

We have this resource in a local HRM resident who has survived the murder of her father, and a later attack where she was set on fire and severely burned a few years ago, and is making herself available to assist those in need. Anthea recently moved to NS from South Africa and knows first hand the devastation this type of personal tragedy has on those affected by it.

If anyone wants Anthea to come and share her insights on how to cope and recover, please feel free to reach out to her directly through her website below or email, anthea@antheavanderpluym.com.

Jennifer is dedicated to work that builds greater resiliency across Atlantic Canada and trusts intuitive, emergent leadership. She is committed, personally and professionally, to amplifying important work that is growing in the Atlantic region and reaching out into the world.

Jennifer is connected intimately with her community and is the founder of a network of barter-based folkschools in Nova Scotia called Life.School.House. This platform for folk education creates stronger more interconnected neighborhoods and reduces the impact of social isolation by offering nourishing spaces where neighbors can learn, connect, and thrive. Jennifer and her husband are raising their two sons in this barter-based community and source great joy from introducing them to the true prosperity in Atlantic Canada: a history of cooperative action, the shared wisdom of multiple generations, and the kindness of strangers.
